Omitting nasri was a bad call

61 points from 34 games is extremely poor for this squad of players.

We haven't had this squad for 34 games. Had we had done so we'd be miles clear.

keeping Bony in the squad was far worse

We still had good enough players to win this league. Terrible to be behind Leicester and spurs

Leicester haven't had our squad for any of their games - and they are miles clear (of us!).
I know we've been hampered with injuries, but in the grand scheme, the teams we have put out should still have won plenty of games (and didn't).

I'm absolutely terrified if the Real game now because i'm 99% sure Yaya will be playing in midfield, it is just a disaster waiting to happen.

It's a different team in the CL. The manager and half the team know they're finished at City so it's all about CL for them. They're not interested in finishing top 4 and securing a CL spot for pep and a load of new players

I wonder if Bony has some clause in his contract about guaranteed PL appearances?

Back to our normal standard for the season, we should make the top four but it isn't nailed on.

Let him take us to court.

Much like some teams keep flirting with relegation and then finally succumb, we flirted with dropping out of top 4 last season if you recall. There was a period around March when it really looked in doubt, but we managed to rally at the end. I hope we don't finally succumb!
